Did you get the FR notice announcing the meeting on July 26. There are a series of questions where FDA is looking for specific feedback. If you would like to speak, I will be glad to add you to the list of speakers. Please let me know if you need the FR notice. Thanks.

Subject: July 26th meeting on drug bar codes
Please send information on speaking at the public hearing on mandating drug bar code labeling.
I have attached information from an error identification study we conducted with the use of our NDC
bar code scanning product, the RxScan Plus Prescription Verifier. It proves how NDC number bar code
scanning can dramatically reduce prescription errors. Our RxScan Plus Prescription Verifier has been
in use for over 3 years in large and small pharmacies.
Would this information be of use at the public meeting?
I also included a sample policy and procedure on how NDC bar code scanning equipment can be used
and pictures of how simple NDC bar code scanning can be performed. It take all of 2 seconds to stop
prescription errors.
